comparison src/cmds.h @ 9130:933a19e3a6b3

[gaim-migrate @ 9908] This puts the core in charge of irc-style /commands, which is way cool. Tim did most of the work, I've just been keeping it in sync with CVS, and slowly adding more commands to jabber. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

/**
 * Register a new command with the core.
 *
 * The command will only happen if commands are enabled,
 * which is a UI pref. UIs don't have to support commands at all.
 *
 * @param cmd The command. This should be a UTF8 (or ASCII) string, with no spaces
 *            or other white space.
 * @param args This tells Gaim how to parse the arguments to the command for you.
 *             If what the user types doesn't match, Gaim will keep looking for another
 *             command, unless the flag @c GAIM_CMD_FLAG_ALLOW_WRONG_ARGS is passed in f.
 *             This string contains no whitespace, and uses a single character for each argument.
 *             The recognized characters are:
 *               'w' Matches a single word.
 *               'W' Matches a single word, and applies the default formatting to it.
 *               's' Matches the rest of the arguments after this point, as a single string.
 *               'S' Same as 's' but applies the default formatting to the matched string.
 *             If args is the empty string, then the command accepts no arguments.
 *             The args passed to callback func will be a @c NULL terminated array of null
 *             terminated strings, and will always match the number of arguments asked for,
 *             unless GAIM_CMD_FLAG_ALLOW_WRONG_ARGS is passed.
 * @param p This is the priority. Higher priority commands will be run first, and usually the
 *          first command will stop any others from being called.
 * @param f These are the flags. You need to at least pass one of GAIM_CMD_FLAG_IM or
 *          GAIM_CMD_FLAG_CHAT (can may pass both) in order for the command to ever actually
 *          be called.
 * @param prpl_id This is the prpl's id string. This is only meaningful is the proper flag is set.
 * @param func This is the function to call when someone enters this command.
 * @param helpstr This is a string describing how to use the command.
 * @return A pointer to a GaimCmdId. This is only used for calling gaim_cmd_unregister, which frees it.
 *         Returns @c NULL on failure.

 *            The caller doesn't have to do any parsing, except removing the command
 *            prefix, which the core has no knowledge of. cmd should not contain the
 *            default formatting, but should contain any user supplied formatting.
 * @param errormsg If the command failed and errormsg is not NULL, it is filled in with
 *                 the appropriate error message. It should be freed by the caller with
 *                 g_free().
